Hey everyone, I found 5 pink oblong pills in my new dorm and they say "V" on one side and "3600" on the other? Are they 1000 mg vicodin??????????? There is also one light greenish oblong pill that says "watson 583" and the other side just has the line to break it in half. Im pretty sure they are vicodin.

10mg Hydrocodone, 1000s do not exist

Submitted by kirby on February 17, 2005 - 9:29pm.

Hydrocodone - V 3600
Generic Name: Hydrocodone, Acetaminophen
Strength: 10 mg, 500 mg
Manufacturer: Qualitest Pharmaceuticals
Trade Name: N/A
Type: Analgesic
Class: RX, CIII
Comment: Original image courtesy of CrackHead. Imprint V3600

& an image from GSM of Propofenone

As well as a link to information on this drug, it is a heart drug.  I know it does not match your physical description, but the imprint is the same.

Check the imprint of that

Check the imprint of that second pill again.  The green one is not Vicodin, it is a heart disease drug, unless I am missing something.  

No, they do not mass produce hydrocodone in quantities over 10mg.  Compound pharmacies can compound the meds to exceed 10mgs, but they are not mass produced.

Im going to assume the green

Im going to assume the green one is Watson 503 not 583? And in that case it would be a generic Lorcet 10/650.

the pill was faded.

i found them in my dorm room, they smell like rotten beer, so I looked at a pic and it matches the watson 503 pic for lorcet or vicodin, id have to go back and check. I think it was lorcet. some of the pill is dizzolved. I can read the 5 and 3 well, i thought it was an 8 but its a 0. the pic i found matches what i have.

1000 mg of hydrocodone?

 

I have had people tell me, they get the 1000's. Obviously they do not exist, since just taking ONE 1000mg would kill you. That would be hydrocodone equal to 100 Norcos, Lortab, Xodol, or Vicodin HP, etc.

 

PEACE

Exactly KM...I was just

Exactly KM...I was just thinking how easy it would be to win a bet with someone who was convinced they were taking 1000 mg of hydro when no way does it exist..lol...bet them a 20 they are wrong...easy money for you, but they learn about the correct mg's at the same time lol..its a win win....I'm just kidding of course.

Just to clarify my post to

Just to clarify my post to Knightmetal...Xodol I didn't mean you by the way when I was talking about the 1000 mg..vicodin bet stuff....I hope I didn't offend you..I meant the people Knightmetal knows that said to him that they have 1000's..they were who I meant.....I just read your post again at the top and realized you probably thought I was referring to you...just so there's no confusion, I was talking about the people in Knightmetals post...I should have read more carefully from the top....things got mixed up a little and could be taken wrong....sorry if it sounded that way.

Just to clarify to everyone

Just to clarify to everyone who doesn't know why hydrocodone is often referred to as 1000's, 750's, or 500's-

It all started with the 5/500 vicodin. People see the 5/500 (which is 5mg hydrocodone/500mg acetaminophen) but often mistake ithe larger number of 500 to be hydrocodone;meaning they are 500mg hydrocodone. "In the street" people started mistakenly referring to the 5's as 500's. Then of course, people didn't know what to call the 7.5mg and 10mg, so they are often called 750's and 1000's just to follow suit.
